Murfie

Murfie is a commercial music streaming service originally based in Madison, Wisconsin. Murfie members buy, sell, and trade compact discs and stream or download their contents.[1] Additionally, members can digitize and store CDs and LPs they sent from home to Murfie.[2]

Murfie was featured in The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, Fast Company, Time magazine, and National Public Radio.[3]

In 2012, Murfie became a member of Techstars.[4] In 2014, Murfie announced they had lossless FLAC streaming available on Sonos devices.[5] In November 2019, Murfie ceased operations,[6] until January 2020 when the site's assets were acquired by Crossies LLC. John Fenley is the owner of both Murfie and Crossies.[7]

When Murfie was shut down, disks were not returned. After accusation, Crossies committed to the project of returning collections to those who had entrusted the Madison company with their music.[8] An LLC set up after Murfie dissolved has been trying to return discs to customers. About 150,000 discs have been requested from a warehouse that is holding around 750,000, according to an email update from Murfie Customer Returns Service LLC, an independent organization set up to help customers get their music back.
